Oct 25, 2004 Honestly not all that awful. Brilliant pour. Watery amber but with a resilient and rocky head that won’t quit. Huge and beautiful. Fruity. Hops are predominant. Nuttily acidic. Round teak.Flavors are fruity and yet slightly bland. Currants and cherries aside there isn’t much but, an abundance of hops and a watery nutty background. Excellent carbonation.

Oct 21, 2004 I love their anvils and I am really enjoying this beer. After weeks of basically only having pils, I am finally glad to be drinking real beer again. Beautiful color. Slightly sweet and fruity in the finish.

Oct 6, 2004 2004 draught. Appears a drab brown with some dark yellow-amber tinges in it and a decent white head. Aroma has light toffee, nuts and some mildly spicy hops. Flavor is pretty hoppy and spicy, without much dryness. But that’s quite alright, as the sweet brown malts complement the hops well. Maybe a hint of vinousness, or at least some light fruit esters in there. Mouthfeel was excellent; lightly creamy, not overcarbonated and had a strong medium body.

Sep 20, 2004 bottled: i had three different acmes together and you really couldnt taste much of a difference except the amt of hopping. all had a poor quality bitter metallic hop tinge that made you go ’why??" this had no malt character at all and didnt remind me of a brown whatsoever.

Sep 5, 2004 Decent light brown head. Frothy on top with ok lacing. Nice roasted grain arma with a bit of hop bitterness and a decent amount of malts. Color is a hazy dark copper. Slightly metallic. Roasted grains, bit of hops. Prety well balanced but a little thin in the flavor. Finish is roasty and dry. Little bit of bitterness. An ok brown ale but I have had much better.

Jul 26, 2004 Ruddy body with medium-high carbonation and a loose silky beige head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel, and nuts plus a touch of baking soda. Chalky malt quality, cherries and some tangy acidity. Fizzy palate. An average brown ale.
